# Manage your monthly budget from the command-line

`clibudget` is a small project written in C to allow anyone to manage their monthly budget in a simple, fast and private way. Everything is local to your machine, so there's no way your sensitive data about your spending patterns can end up in a data broker's hands.

The goals of the project are as follows:

 - Maximum efficiency on usability: be efficient in what's core to budget management, and for things that another program can do it better, let that program handle it for us.
 - Local data, local privacy: everything is done in the local machine, without ever using the network. When the data goes out of the user's machine, it's by the user's fully conscious decision with an external program.
 - Interoperability: by using well-supported standards (SQLite, CSV, XML), `clibudget`'s data can be exported to or imported from pretty much any other program.
